Some of these fixes are subtle (like the first patch) and very annoying to debug. Although the first patch looks like a hack, surprisingly, it's how the spec itself says it is! It's not even an IE quirk, but a special case in the spec.
For example, the variable name (which holds the builtin eval func) **does** matter: if it's called something other than 'eval', it gets treated differently (as if indirect), and this is verified by the tests + the spec's wording (so Microsoft's implementation follows it).
Most of the patches other than the first 2 are pretty small so they're in same MR.
